Nerve Tracing
STUDY 31
Lesson 1
In the history of nations it is ruled by the thought as practiced and lived by the men of that country. In the history of philosophies, sciences and arts there have been but few revolutionary movements in its history; i. e., there have been few thoughts so great in their revolutionary influence that it has practically or entirely overturned all that has went before. In the phase which we are most interested in, therapeutics, there have been so few that they are rare, revolutionary movements in the history of that body. I might almost say within the bounds of reason and investigation that the ideas practiced today were practiced three and four thousand years ago. Of modern times, though there has been one revolution, blood circulation by Harvey, and I question whether even that can be considered a revolutionary thought because its application was upon the basis that existed. I can most severely criticize and condemn the lack of investigation of sufficient character so that medicine has never had one revolutionary thought in its rank. You may think I am speaking harshly, unjustly and without due consideration, but I am basing my investigation upon historical results of every make-up that have been in existence for thousands of years. I am basing it upon the research given the subject, and I can say, that medicine as practiced today has the same basic principle. It was only a few hundred years ago they gave lizards and toads to the human family, that the cure of disease was based upon a treatment of its effects in a superstitious manner, and can we say more than that when we believe that contagion depends upon the thing that makes it contagious, such as the infinitesimal bug ? Is not that a superstition based upon a myth, a theory? In fact, is not all of therapeutics based upon the fundamental of treating effects, and was medicine of three or four thousand years ago different? I cannot help at this time feeling, and justly so, that Chiropractic is really the first completely revolutionary idea that has been presented to the world of therapeutics for ages. I say revolutionary, and I am implying just that from the first fundamental. It is assuming no fundamental gone before. It is working out theories, ideas, a science, art and even a philosophy of its own. Its basic principles is not the fundamental that has existed, that has swept the pages of therapeutics before this. It is upon one of the peculiar and particular phases of revolutionary dines of thought, in this connection, that I am going to talk.
STUDY 31 Lesson 1
Look, if you will, briefly, into the pages of therapeutical history and you find there the sympathetic nervous system. It is of at least a thousand years ago. This theory of sympathy between one or more organs distantly placed is an old idea handed down from one family to another, from one generation to another, from book to book and always has been accepted because the learned man knew it was so. I wish to revolutionally change the ideas we have conceived and replace it with something that even at its basis is different, and I wish to substitute anything in the character of a sympathetic nervous system wherein sympathy is the basis with a direct communication from brain cell to tissue cell system. I am going to take you through a few of the cases of nerve tracing that has been done in this school in regard to tracing from direct tissue cell to direct brain cell, and I want, as you reason about the paths of nerves, where they begin and end, to keep in mind that every proof we over is just that much change in revolutionizing the old to the new. If you investigate this more thoroughly from the Chiropractic standpoint, you will grasp what I mean when I say Chiropractic is the biggest movement that has ever been started in the history of the world. I say big and I mean big, because as soon as we see the revolutionary phase it means that we have changed our viewpoint regarding the solaced sciences of todayBiology, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology, etc. It means that if we can establish the facts that we are presenting in a logical conclusion, then everything else changes with it. I want to talk about this proposition of nerve tracing and outline it in such a way as to suggest the principles and state of affairs in nerve tracing today. We chiropractors talk a great deal about nerve tracing. What do we mean ? Some mean one thing and some another, but most mean the actual, physical, manual palpation by which we trace a nerve from its emergence from the spinal cord to its peripheries or nerve endings, or trace from the peripheries to their entrance into the spine to proceed to the brain. There are certain questions about nerve tracing that naturally suggest themselves and that must be met and answered. Probably the first are: When to trace, how to trace, and Why to trace nerves. It is hardly necessary to answer where to trace nerves because the only possible place is along the course of the nerve itself. As to when to trace nerves, I should say the only possible conditions under which a nerve can be traced are conditions of dis-ease,incoordination,conditions of abnormality in which the nerve is impinged and therefore is not able to transmit its normal amount of mental impulses. Nerves under impingement are usually tender and swollen and it is only in these cases in which pressure upon that nerve by the finger or by any other agency elicits a feeling or sensation in the mind of the patient of tenderness that the nerves can be traced. Thus it is that nerve tracing is not applicable in all cases but only approximately 90 per cent. We are unable to trace nerves in cases where pressure is so heavy that all possible feeling of tenderness is gone, cases in which there is no response
STUDY 31 Lesson 1
to pressure along the nerve at any place with sensation of tenderness, but I should say unquestionably every Chiropractor should use nerve tracing in all cases that come to him in which it is possible to do so. That much for the question when. Now the question why. For several reasons it is necessary that we, as a profession, give more attention to the subject of nerve tracing that we have done in the past. Dr. Patchen said in an able lecture that there are two things that we need to know about the patient. The first is, where there is something wrong, and, second, what can be done to benefit him? Nerve tracing comes under the first half of that question. Nerve tracing aids in knowing what to do to benefit the patient by determining where the subluxation is and this it does by establishing the location of the subluxation. It will not only do this for you and thus aid you to know where to give the adjustment, but it will establish, in the mind of the patient, the connection of the cause of the disease with the periphery. As a general rule, it is hard for new patients to comprehend that subluxated vertebrae may be the actual physical representative of the cause of the incoordination in lungs, kidneys, stomach or in some other organ or tissue. It is hard for him to understand because he has had nothing from which to reason. We learn only by reasoning from the known to the unknown; this is an old truth and one which you can use to advantage. If you do, you must begin with what the patient knows or you must begin by using something which can be demonstrated to him, either by sight or touch or by the actual interpretations which occur in his mind. By nerve tracing you are dealing with a system of demonstrations in and through which the patient actually feels the connection; feels that you are passing down the course of the nerve so that by the time you have finished he has felt a definite connection between a certain point in his spine and the organs not normal. It has been our experience and that of those among you who use nerve tracing that there is nothing which will so enable you to hold that patient as nerve tracing. So much for the reason why. There has been much discussion as to nerve tracing, and I wish to say that nerve tracing is not alone something which belongs to Chiropractic. If you take the dictionary definition, nerve tracing has been used by the medical and osteopathic profession before us. Medical men have traced nerves by working them out by the use of the knife, as in dissection or vivisection, as well as they could. I am sure that medical men have traced nerves in investigationwhich, of course, needs no comment here. Osteopaths have traced by the use of electrical machines, passing down the problematic course of a nerve and by observation of electrical reactions that occur along that nerve. All that has been done in nerve tracing by the Osteopathic and medical professions has been done working on the basis of sympathetic action of the nervous system and by the law of expectancy have found what they were looking for, while we, as Chiropractors, have radically departed from this basis. Chiropractors prove by logic, as in philosophy,
STUDY 31 Lesson 1
and by results, as in the clinic, that there is a direct connection between brain cell and tissue cell. The action which takes place in the nervous system exists in a direct current from the brain to the tissue cell and from the tissue cell to the brain to complete the cycle. In this way we have traced over, thru and past every ganglion that was near enough to the surface of the body to be taken into consideration. We have presumed from the universal functional connection that if we could have access to the deeper nerves in the thorax, for instance, we could trace them also. The proper method of scientific procedure which everyone should follow if he is investigating, with the idea of determining new truth; that is, truth new to the educational world, is this: first an observation of facts, of every fact which can be observed, which has any bearing upon the theory in question. Second, the classification of these facts as nearly as possible with regard to their resemblance to each other to include as many facts of the same kind as can be gathered together. Then, third, reasoning which will lead to the deduction of laws which bring about that series of facts. This is what you have done in Chiropractic nerve tracing. A theory was advanced that the action of the nervous system is direct instead of sympathetic. That was purely a theory, not based upon anything except pure reason, pure logic. Concomitant with that arose a series of investigations which brought to light a large number of facts. Facts observed by scores of men and women all doing the same thing, eliciting the same kind of facts and massing the multitude of simple facts of nerve tracing. We were certain that a nerve might be traced from between the fifth and sixth cervical vertebrae directly out from the shoulder and down the outer aspect of the arm, swinging around to the interior aspect of the arm and proceeding down to the hand. That nerve has been traced by a large number of men, all found practically the same, with a certain amount of deviation which we find in every part of man. With this large number of facts classified in that way, it became necessary to deduce the reason or principle behind them. The subluxation theory had been thoroughly demonstrated clinicallythat the giving of adjustments, the actual accomplishment of the thing attemptedwas always followed by the relief or disappearance of symptoms which led to the adjustment of a vertebra. Having established that thoroughly, in addition to the facts which had been observed in regard to the course and passage of nerves, in deducing the laws or principles which govern the action of a nervous system working on that basis, and we have as a reason for that a multitude of experiences, all leading to the same conclusion, we were forced to accept the inevitable conclusion that the passage of power is a direct one from the brain to the tissues of the body. Some cant see how I reason that nerve tracing ends at the spinal column. Having traced that far I bring in the facts in connection With the subluxation theory; that is, that the adjustment following the subluxation will always bring about the correc-
10
STUDY 31 Lesson 1
tion of the incoordination of which that particular subluxation is the cause. By experience along that line in palpating for subluxations it was found that when an adjustment was given the impingement disappeared and at the same time the effects at the peripheries disappeared. Knowing that the voluntary as well as the involuntary, that is, the so-called involuntary, muscles were affected by the pressures upon nerves at various points in the spine and that the correction of subluxations caused the disease to disappear in those muscles which were under the direct control of that mind residing in the brain, it was natural for us to conclude that the action was the same in each case. The most important thing probably in nerve tracing is manual dexterity and mental interpretations; that is, skill in the use of the hand and clearness of that differentiation by the tracer and patient. This is usually acquired by skill in palpation, which is the same kind of sense training that we use in palpating for a tender nerve. To the Chiropractor the second finger is the tracing finger. The use of the second finger reinforced by the thumb and first finger affords a very small pointed and keenly sensitive instrument with which to do the work. The hand is then used in a transverse movement across the course of the nerve or the problematic course of the nerve so that the finger crosses it at right angles and produces a pressure on the nerve as it passes across. This, on an impinged nerve, usually gives rise to a sense of tenderness. Cooperation with the patient and the Chiropractor is essential to successful nerve tracing. Drop the finger perhaps a half inch, perhaps an inch, farther down; repeat the operation in that way and the sensation of the patient will determine whether he has somewhat of the same kind of tenderness. The difficulties that usually occur in nerve tracing and that are the most frequent and disconcerting dies perhaps in the fact that the patient may not know enough of what you are doing to cooperate with you or that you may not be able to feel the muscular contraction along the course of the nerve which is an evidence that you have crossed the nerve. There is a particular aspect aside from the technique of nerve tracing that I would like to touch upon. So far all of the nerve tracing in Chiropractic, while it has been excellent, has produced excellent results, has been used by many Chiropractors with a large degree of success,has still shown a remarkable divergence of method and of accuracy. All the palpation that we have used, with all the talks that we have heard along the line of nerve tracing, has not yet systematized it in such a way that it has been taught to the vast mass of Chiropractors in such a way that they do use a universal method and therefore do not get a universal success. Do you understand what I mean? We have in the form of adjustment a something which can be demonstrated, transmitted from one man to another without a great or appreciable loss; something about which we have books printed, long articles and
11
STUDY 31 Lesson 1
discussions published. Palpation is something which can be demonstrated, and we are teaching a universal method. With nerve tracing there is no universal method. The problem which confronts Chiropracticthat is, it should be the problem of every student thereofis the development of such a system of nerve tracing as will be universal, universally successful, and as nearly perfect as possible. I do not suppose that we will ever be able to trace nerves in more than 90 per cent of the cases. I do not suppose that even in those 90 per cent we will use exactly the same methods or discover exactly the same things, but still I know that nerve tracing is not as perfect as it could be, providing all better understood care and discretion in their work. It is one of the three important branches of the Chiropractors analysis, which should consist of analysis, nerve tracing and adjusting. You should be a competent nerve tracer, as nerve tracing is an easy thing to theorize about and to explain in such a way that another man can actually trace a nerve. It is not very difficult, for instance, to trace the great Sciatic nerve, but so far as the actual discovering and being certain about the path of the nerve in every case, I say that we Chiropractors are as far from that as, well, I will use the illustration of the old minister in our home town. He had a pet expression, As far as the east is from the west, and that is about the difference in the various methods used by Chiropractors in tracing nerves. I might add that there is a movement on foot for the solution of that problem. It is hardly fair for a man to offer a problem without offering a solution. The P. S. C. has devised a plan by which we are able to develop classes in nerve tracing and to establish a universal method, and also we have in mind a system which will be explained in these lessons so that all can accept and they will be able to utilize it in practice. I should like to see science so fulfilled that every Chiropractor in the field will use the same method of palpation, of nerve tracing, of analyzing effects and the same method of adjusting. That is, the same method is applicable to the same class of cases. In that I dont wish to be understood that exactly the same adjustment should apply to every case, but rather that every Chiropractor should be educated to the point at which all would be confronted with the same case, give exactly the same adjustment. It probably depends more on you than on us whether we shall accomplish that or not, so outline your study in this work with the solution of the problem of nerve tracing as one of your chief objects. Analysis is the key-note of all things; in all businesses that are successful, anything old that is made better, anything new made considerably better, anything better which is made best, which is progressive, new, rebuilding, progression, evolution, all is but an analysis of things as old as old can be. We ask ourselves in this age of advancement whether there is anything new under the sun; the answer immediately must be No. There is absolutely nothing new; there is no new question today of the evolution of things
12
STUDY 31 Lesson 1
material; the evolution of matter did intellectually place a new interpretation, perhaps, upon things, but even that is not new; it is old. In this study of evolution of all things material we find that therapeutics has always played a most important part in the welfare of man and upon his welfare depended what men did; whether he was healthy, wealthy and wise depended on his health usually; sometimes the healthiest man is wise and is also inclined to be the wealthiest. As I have said, the therapeutical studies have in a great degree measured the advancement of the world; not by so making the statement do I grant that therapeutics has ever been right, but it has been right so far as it went in its step in its evolution. In the study, then, of things of this world, we have been bringing about this worlds each and every step; for instance, go back to the present threshing machine and even that has had its movement by stages. Take man himself, and he will grow from boyhood to your manhood, and from that to old age, the boy from the embryo and the embryo from the fetus; so we have characteristic terms which express so-called divisional processes. So there is no question in my mind but what there was something to precede homeopathy and that Allopathy preceded homeopathy, and so forth, and it was just and right that it came when it did. There is no question but what osteopathy had to have its whirl at the world when it did, but it is getting to be like all the others now; in its place and even in the place of all of them is to come the science of Chiropractic. You ask why the one is going to replace all others, and you will ask, why has one followed the other in regular order? It is because it has been easierit has been the history of every rule combined into a truthful analysis of anything. I have said that analysis is the key-note; I mean it; analysis has been the key-note of therapeutics, altho little utilized, and analysis is the key-note of why Chiropractic is here; because muchly used. Homeopathy then first showed us that homeopathy was better than that which preceded it; eclectism was better than homeopathy; then osteopathy rose up, it was better than any of these, and today Chiropractic has replaced even that which replaced homeopathy and is replacing them all because it is progression. Progression is but analysis; analysis then is but detailed reasons why and the hows of all things, so that we understand them in our finite mind. I stated that Chiropractic is replacing all these; it is fast doing so upon the ground that Chiropractic is better analyzed and is more thoroughly the whole truth; more the truth than anything gone before. There is only one basis for a truth, there is only one analyzed basis of why and how we adjust man; only one; not one hundred, not a dozen. Again, we look at the crawling of a snake upon the ground; there is only one analysis of why and how that snake crawls. We look at any beast of burden working in its daily harness; there is only one analysis of how and why it is living. We look at man, there is only one analysis
13
STUDY 31 Lesson 1
as to why and how he lives; there is only one analysis of why he was born; there is only one analysis of why and how he dies; there IS only one analysis of why he came and why he lives and goes; there is only one solution of this problem. Consequently Socrates, Hypocrates, Harvey, Confucius, Caesar, Napoleon, Roosevelt, Palmer, any of them, all of them, they have always had the same one man to look at; just one; not many. Every one of the parties mentioned had the same opportunities to look at man in their various times as we have today. Mankind has always been the same so far as our present area of education is concerned. It is true that could we grasp the significance of the hundreds of thousands of years spent in the progression of mankind and run back over all the years from the time our ancestors are supposed to have been apes until the man of today, we would see the evolutions; but while we significantly speak of education being a process of thousands of yearsa few thousand years we cannot during that period of time prove the evolution that has taken place, and it is my opinion that man has dived not just a few thousand years, but millions of years on this earth. Consequently the transmission from the ape to manthe transformation from ape to man has not been the process of a few thousands years, but ran into the hundreds of thousands of years. Run back to the time of Confucius and compare the ideas he had of man and compare those ideas with our ideas today. We will see then but little progressive change. He had the same demands and the same opportunities of analysis that man has today, and while it appears egotistic to compare myself with Napoleon, a great man, and Roosevelt, a great man, and Roosevelt, a common man, we have all had the same opportunities to analyze man; but we find now, in the analysis of education, that man has constantly been changing from what he thought he was, in his own mind. Therefore, education as we get it is but a question of the viewpoint of what we think we see; according to what we see do we interpret, and according to what we do we interpret, and according to that do we analyze. Analysis then is but the attempt upon the part of man to explain why, and how, certain things have occurred. Lets look at mankind. He has always been likely to be sick one day and well another. I say that there is one reason why and how that man is sick; just one; not many; and consequently; Chiropractic has reached the truest and the only solution of the real truth of those things, and a great deal more truth, consequently, than that which is called truth in the so-called sciences. In view of these facts I feel justified in saying that if any of you or I pass out of this world today that this truth would continue to go on and revolutionize the whole world, because it has been properly started and it is now in the hands of so many who think so much of it and, too, it being the truth in itself, is enough to insure its perpetuation. When any man enters into this work for the aim or for the purpose of making money out of it and to play upon the suffering
14
STUDY 31 Lesson 1
of humanity simply for money, you can be sure that person will fail in business sooner or later. Again let us analyze Chiropractic as it is today. Primarily, we know sickness to exist; we note sickness; when we note sickness we must note health, which is its contrast; primarily we observe sickness, and sickness again can be analyzed in its analysis into three primary phases: symptomatology, palpation and the most important one, that of nerve tracing. Chiropractic nerve tracing is not known nor taught in any therapeutical school. It originated here; it is the key-note of our work; it is the product of mental analysis first and physical desires second to see that the mental-physical demands live up to the mental analysis. Nerve tracing is what its name implies, the tracing of nerves; not tracing nerves in a dead body, but tracing them out in a live body; not tracing according to the meaning of the term tracing of nerves as commonly accepted in this connection, but it is a tracing of, 1st, their position; 2nd, location; 3rd, periphery; 4th, paths and their termination at the spine by means of digital palpation with the fingers. Nerve tracing is one of the most remarkable changes that has taken place in therapeutics for hundreds of years. In this country, instead of the history of medicine revealing anything new for the past six or seven hundred years, the only remarkable changes taken place are those founded upon the discovery of blood by Harvey; any other attempt in the therapeutical world has been but a fancied change; here today and gone tomorrow; of value today and valueless, worthless, tomorrow. Alongside of that or those great observations made by Harvey in his tracing of the circulation of blood I believe that it should be said that nerve tracing should take a stand with it, on this ground, that much III therapeutics today, especially in the neurological mind, would be in the discussion made upon the nervous system todaythat much of the work done is problematical, and he has not given a single fact unless it is guesswork. While this statement is revolutionary, contrast it with the statement of Grays Anatomy, Dunglison, McMurrich, or any other authority that you want to cite. They state that the nervous systems have distinct paths, whereas their whole teachings are mythical from the brain to the toenail. I dont make this statement rashly; I make it conservatively and base it on analysis of the facts that they in their attempts to apply to their system have failed absolutely, inasmuch as they cannot make it apply to man as he really lives. It is a fact that any physician, be he the greatest or the smallest, or be he the most wise or the most ignorant, or whether he have the greatest reputation, or whether he have the poorest, he can take a dead body and he can show you nerves; he can show you large nerves; plexuses and many ganglia, but he cannot nor never will be able to demonstrate the sympathy as he claims it to exist. Therefore, all conclusions reached in anatomies have been purely hypothetical, physiological conclusions, based on dissectional anatomy. We are forced to conclude that certainly something must he done, found or dis-
15
STUDY 31 Lesson 1
covered which will come forward and overthrow these hypothetical deductions and replace them with something that will be truthful and scientific, and not only the truth but that which will be permanent because of the fact that it is truth. I feel today that that which we as Chiropractors are supplying is purely radical, practical and scientific. What I propose is to explain Nerve Tracing as we have discovered and advanced it, and then compare it with the Sympathetic Nervous System, as it is called. The Sympathetic Nervous System, as you know, is purely an attempt to have fibres from one plexus to another and from one ganglion to another, and from there to some other. It is purely a case of where, with Chiropractic, we are aiming to accomplish great things, almost insurmountable obstacles and apparently impregnable and supposedly impossible facts of tracing the nerve fibres from the place where the difficulty seems to arise or where the trouble is felt, and trace from the abnormality back to the cause, wherever that may exist. It is true tracing out nerves is very delicate work and therefore it is necessary that the highest degree of care and skill be exercised both on the part of the patient and on the one doing the tracing that the proper interpretation may be given to each phase of the work as it progresses. Much of this needs exist in the patients mind; in fact, should be interpreted by he and you, and both should be able to work from that viewpoint. It isnt a work wherein you can guess out the path of a nerve and the problematical steps until you arrive at some conclusion; it isnt a work that you can jump into and immediately conclude that you are right in anything that may occur to you; you must analyze your work in nerve tracing that you must depend on. Nerve tracing is a careful work, it requires the normal intellectual interpretations of your patient as well as yourself. It is that condition wherein your patient must use his intelligence linked with yours to the entire absence of anything surrounding you. You two must be conjointly working to a common end; therefore it becomes necessary for you, as a Chiropractor, properly aiming to trace the nerve, to tell the patient what you want to do and how you propose to do it, and explain what you are doing so he can work in unison with you. Explain first the object of nerve tracing. That which any physician attempts is practically impossible. Only yesterday one student said that his physician had said that there were no direct nerves from the spine to the appendix. According to Grays and other anatomy this is correct; he was right in his statement from his viewpoint, but he was far from being right from the viewpoint of actualities of truth. That physician, however, wouldnt dare to make that statement before you or myself, because if we had an appendicitis case before us you could easily and very quickly prove him clinically wrong. Nerve tracing requires diligence, time and effort, accuracy of feeling and many details which you will get as you progress in the case, and it is for the reason of some of these smaller intricacies that I am going to present a few of these views.
16
STUDY 31 Lesson 1
Dont allow cross fibres to worry you when you are nerve tracing. You may be tracing on a definite path and you will come to another fibre that is impinged at some vertebra above or below the one at which you are working. That oftentimes permits a subject to sidetrack. It is these sidetrackings which will put you off more than anything else. It will start you off on one or more wrong nerves and in that manner you will be compelled to retrace your steps and start over again. You will find in tracing up the fibres that one or the other presents a different kind of tenderness; that is, you can bear in mind you are tracing nerves upon a living, feeling, thinking body, having a mind which reasons, deducts and which logically feels what you are doing. It is when tracing one particular fibre and working along one definite line that another crosses it that you will get two different degrees of mental interpretations. It is then that you must be careful of the cross fibres. Another warning is that your patient will or may tell you that this is tender when he is but ticklish, especially in the region of the lumbar, in the region of the hips, along the upper anterior thigh and pelvis, and inasmuch as these parts are most usually ticklish, it is well to be careful to use your judgment at these times. It pays, again, when your patient is being traced and you are working on special nerves, to see and make a clear emphasis to the patient to distinguish whether tender or ticklish; be sure to make the right distinction. The thoro general, internal and external, conclusions that we have reached in thousands of nerve tracings justify us in stating that we shall be able to overthrow the sympathetic nervous system as taught in Anatomies. These tracings have been carefully worked out and everything had been carefully and accurately verified; consequently there is no theory and there are no idiosyncratic emotions entering into our composition. These nerve tracings have proven conclusively, by the results following the adjustments, that they were correct, and the results prove the statement. These results have been revolutionary inasmuch so as the surgical nerve tracings which preceded it were very unsatisfactory. It removed the effects; consequently every step in the analysis from the effect hack to cause or back to the adjustment, rather, following the nerve tracing and adjustment of the subluxations and the lack of the flow of currentsevery step has been one of analysis and has been revolutionary in itself. Consequently we have just gotten started on the great number of cases which you will have in your lessons. Bear in mind then, that correct nerve tracing is reliable, and when you sum them up it will most certainly revolutionize conditions. This system places in your minds thoughts so revolutionary that they overthrow the Nervous System in Gray. These nerve tracings can be depended upon; it will meet the criticism and that is something Grays Anatomy cant do, even in the less difficult problems. Nerve tracing is work you cannot jump at and conclude in a hurry; it is a work which you must devote every
17
STUDY 31 Lesson 1
faculty to; which will need your complete concentration. Even the most simple require exact work. The attitude of your hands is particular work and important; it is not taking the heel of your hand on a body somewhere; you should take the smallest tip of the index finger and trace out the nerve in question. This finger shows the manner of palpating for a subluxation. If you trace from cause to effect then you follow out upon the same grounds as given in any other palpating work. (Consider, if you will, from cause you will find your subluxation first. Find what kind it is. Then from them you begin your process of nerve tracing. Notice the many crosses. At the crosses you have found no pressures upon nerves above or below, consequently the one point being tender, you are able to form your conclusions to a certainty. We will go on with these pictures or views here and you will see the demonstrations of the work as we proceed.

STUDY 31 Lesson 1 this drawing. Nerve from right S. P. ran perpendicularly upwards spreading into two branches as it reached the neck, one going to the right cheek and the other going over the scalp and downwards in front of the eye, as shown in 351. The nerve from S. P. on right went straight upward, over the shoulder and down to pit of stomach on left side. This is very unusual, but several places upon the path of this fibre pressure would bring forth a sickening pain at that place. Illustration No. 351.Dr. C. Anterior view. See 350 for description.

Starting at the right side of the neck passing backward above scapula, and then passing backward to superior of scapula, then down the side of scapula, and crossing over between ribs posteriorly to subluxation between sixth and seventh dorsal, which we call S. P. These tracings were semi superficial. Lungs. Pleurisy. Starting at right of sternum, passing somewhat to inferior boundary of clavicle, then under the axilla under scapula, then passing posteriorly, then slightly upward, crossing the fibre leading to S. P. and then nearly perpendicular upward to the subluxation which is left inferior posterior of the fourth dorsal. Anterior view. Illustration No. 387.Mr. I. Posterior view. Starting directly under the ensiform, proceeding toward the right and then directly goes under the last rib, passing posteriorly along the surface of the last rib, then crossing the ribs posteriorly and then proceed obliquely upward to the subluxation of the fifth dorsal vertebra, which was found to the left superior.

Palpation found a subluxation at S. P. to be posterior inferior and with tenderness on the left side to the lower border of the last rib, then passing inward between the last rib, and the ilium where it divided into fibres and ending within the region of the stomach. The nerve was very tender and superficially throughout and was especially so just above the pylorus. The stomach is a little prolapsed and the course of the fibre a trifle lower than normal. Several times along the path of this fibre, stimulation would induce the expulsion of gas per mouth. Illustration No. 392.Mr. C. Posterior view. Tracing from cause to effect.

From fourth cervical to neumogastric region to the base of the ear. From third cervical to larynx around both sides up the eustachian tube to ear also. Illustration No. 411.Mr. B. Posterior view. Liver trouble was the primary affection. Started at Li. P., traced on right side around inferior portion of scapula to that organ. Shows peculiar deposition of several fibres, the one running inferior and the two superior passing directly upward, over the clavicles and running forward and downward. Illustration No. 412.Anterior view shows the two portions of fibres running downward on the anterior and making a circle in the abdomen. These fibres were deep, therefore have more than a tracing significance. The entire abdomen was more or less sore. No starlings of fibres could be found in the lumbar region. Illustration No. 413.Mr. I. Fibre should pass over left shoulder obliquely to between third and fourth ribs and sternum. Starting without subluxation at third dorsal, which is found to the left superior, we trace the fibre to the superior border of the left scapula and down its inferior border, then down to the lower point, which is on a horizontal line drawn from nipple to ninth dorsal, where it makes an angle upward under the axilla across breast to the sternum. The affected parts involved correspond to the apex of the heart.

Anterior right view. Starting with left inferior fibre of the fifth lumbar, we trace around outer border of sacrum, down across left buttock, down the outer border of left thigh to anterior of leg, across the internal part of ankle to the eighteenth phalanx. The right superior fibre of the fifth lumbar was traced under the hip, over the outer border of the right, around the popliteal space, across the outer border of soleus, to the ankle along the external border of foot to between the 4th and fifth phalanges. Tracing the impinging fibre at the fourth lumbar subluxation, we follow it under the right hip, across the right inguinal region to nearly the middle of the hypogastric region, involved an area extending inferiorly to superior border of the thigh. Illustration No. 426.Mr. N. Posterior view, fourth cervical. Posterior left inferior for catarrh from fourth cervical around neck to median line in front of throat. Second dorsal.

Third dorsal. Right posterior inferior. Fourth dorsal, right posterior superior, eighth dorsal left posterior superior, tenth dorsal, left posterior superior, twelfth dorsal, left superior. Illustration No. 431.Mr. D. Posterior view. Starting from the third dorsal vertebra we find the subluxation to the left posterior, with impingement above on the left side and below on the right, the more pronounced being the left superior, which we trace obliquely downward along the inner margin of the left scapula below the last rib, then passing upward (obliquely) across the left lumbar to the inferior boundary of the ensiform appendix, then following the sternum it proceeds slightly beyond its superior boundary and involving the entire pectoralis major muscle, thence the fibres going directly internal to the lung.

Right eye was the one most complained of. While no complaint was entered regarding the left eye, yet it was some affected also. The following subluxations were recorded: Axis right posterior. Traced forward under ear to right side of eye following eyebrow and under eye to nose joining the other fibre from just above in front of the ear. First dorsal right posterior traced to superior of clavicle and over scapula. Fifth dorsal right posterior superior running over right scapula. We did not follow some of the lower fibres, for they did not interest us in this eye trouble. Illustration No. 441.Miss C. Age 9. Parts affected: Right side of base of occipital region. Posterior to ear, periodic headache. Throat trouble. Hypothetical course of fibre. Will start on right side of S. P. upward to the right of scapula over right clavicle to right side of posterior of neck to base of occipital. Actual course: Tracing cause to effect. Starting with impinged fibre, which was rear superior subluxation, we traced it outward and downward to the internal inferior border of scapula then proceeded downward to about one and one-half inches above the right hip, then to right hypochondriac region to superior of epigastric, then upward to right side of sternum. At the center of the breast there was a separation of fibres, one proceeding directly upward slightly to right of larynx. The other crossed over the right shoulder to the right side of the base of the occipital about two inches posterior to the tragus of ear. Illustration No. 453.Starting from right of fibre impinged at first lumbar, it proceeds over hip down to right side of thigh, turning to the inner side just over patella; coming down inner side of leg over internal malleolus where it branches, one going to dorsal surface and one to great toe, and the other posteriorly over plantar to little toe. Illustration No. 454.Starting its subluxations at fifth lumbar we trace impinged fibres on the right across sacrum over buttocks down posterior of thigh, to popliteal region and outer side of leg, thence posterior of external malleolus to outer border of dorsum and the little toe. Illustration No. 455.Mr. D. While lifting a rock, it slipped on his finger, maiming it in bad shape. Pain was had in the arms and shoulders next day, especially in the right arm and shoulder. The pain getting worse, a subluxation was detected and the tracing made, which goes to prove that the case did produce the subluxation at that time. The posterior view shows the location of the subluxation and the tracing from there to the area involved. 469

SECTION IV
The following series of views lead to definite conclusive opinions of the breadth and universality of nerve tracing. Only one who is a master of his subject, an artist with his hands, could issue such accurate and scientific wealth of facts as follow. We are forced to say, if these portraits bear truthful facts, that man is more than past students have dreamed, either a new nervous system must come into vogue, or, the results attained by chiropractors with chiropractic, based upon nerve tracing calculations are a myth, and even this the most credulous and skeptical would deny.

Illustration No. 704.Mr. S. Posterior view. Shows tracing starting at the spine. Exit of first two fibres inferior to second and superior to third cervical vertebrae leads on left and right up to and over superior portion of ears, eventually leading to the center of the superior orbital arch, and there leading to eye. Fibre of left from between third and fourth cervical vertebrae, taking the same path and ending at the same place on left eye. Fibre will be noted having a common exit between fourth and fifth cervical vertebrae leading under each ear forward over cheek and passing to the outer angle of the eye, and there having a common entrance. This individual suffered with the eyes. This view further shows fibre having an exit on left side from between 15th and 16th zones running obliquely downwards and outwards to under angle of scapula, thence forward eventually into three divisions, taking in the region of the stomach. This is a trifle lower than usual, but shows the value of nerve tracing. Usually the adjustment would have been given slightly higher and the case might not have received the desired results. Illustration No. 705.Mr. S. Anterior view. Compare the description of 704. Illustration No. 706.Mr. J. Posterior view. Fibres on left and right sides have a common exit between 14th and 15th zones and go to the superior abdominal region. Exit of fibre on right side in 20th zone leading slightly downward and outward to right abdominal region. Compare with 707. Illustration No. 707.Mr. J. Anterior view. Shows the area covered by the 14th and 20th neuro-meres. It is unusual for any lateral fibre to overstep the linea alba, although that occurs on the left side of this individual. Illustration No. 708.Mrs. K. Posterior view. Superior tracing. Shows fibres passing out from between occiput and atlas on left side and between occiput and atlas and on right side atlas and axis. The sides are similar with the exception that the fibre on left has only one exit. Lower tracing shows an elongated fibre leading outward from between the 18th and 19th zones on right, having an insertion in the muscles of the lateral wall of the abdomen. On the left, fibres are found having an exit from between the 18th and 19th, and 19th and 20th zones. The insertion of these nerves leads to the kidneys. Lateral fibres are noted in the 22d neuro-mere, passing laterally and forward, eventually reaching the ovaries. Two fibres are found on each side of the sacrum, having a common exit passing the posterior notches and thence 785
STUDY 31 Lesson 1 downward and are easily traceable. The superior fibres are under pressure between fifth lumbar and sacrum. The same subluxation is producing pressure upon fibres having their exit below through the foramina of the sacrum. Illustration No. 709.Mrs. K. Anterior view. This view shows the 22d neuro-mere passing downward and obliquely forward dividing into three divisions of the left side and two on the right. The affection here was ovarian. Illustration No. 710.Mr. L. Posterior view. Fibre is shown on left having an exit from between the 13th and 14th verte-meres passing obliquely downward and forward, going under the angle of the scapula. The 22d neuro-mere passes laterally and forward over the crest of the left ilium, thence to left testicle. Fibres are seen passing outward from between the 22d, 23d and 24th verte-meres. The 23d fibre passes over the crest to the ilium, thence forward, having its insertion in the internal portion of the right leg, eventually reaching as low as the superior one-third of the shin. The other branch of this 23d neuro-mere passes downward to a common meeting point on the buttock, where it unites with a fibre passing outwardly from between the 24th and 25th vertebrae. Also unites with a nerve passing outward from between the 25th vertebra and sacrum. It will further be noticed that three fibres have exit through the right posterior sacral grooves, the most superior of which unites and helps to form the sacrosciatic, and continues outward over the left buttock, passing thence toward the posterior internal portion of the rear leg, divide and go to each side of the posterior popliteal space. Illustration No. 711.Mr. L. Anterior view. Illustration No. 712.Mr. R. Posterior view. Subluxation posterior, inferior of 22d verte-mere producing a pressure upon fibre leading directly lateral, over the crest of the ilium, thence forward and downward, eventually to right scrotum, which was pedulous. The right testicle is diminished in size and does not functionate. Illustration No. 713.Mr. R. Anterior view. For description see 712. Illustration No. 714.Mr. B. Posterior view. Subluxation between the seventh cervical and first dorsal producing pressure upon the eighth neuro-mere which leads directly outward, slightly downward, passing over left shoulder, following the posterior outward angle of the superior one-third of the upper arm, and thence radiating forward and downward, eventually leading to the muscles of the forearm. The condition was writers cramp. There was also existing a subluxation between the 13th and 14th verte-mere, producing pressure upon 14th neuro-mere leading obliquely downward to side leading to eventually divide over the pit of the stomach. It will be noted that there is a fluctuation in the actual insertion and exit of this fibre which is involved. Nerve tracing makes your work specific without a question of doubt.
786
STUDY 31 Lesson 1 Illustration No. 715.Mr. B. Anterior view. Compare with 714. Illustration No. 716.Mr. F. Posterior view. Shows a subluxation existing between seventh and eighth dorsal vertebra. Fibres leading upward parallel with vertebral column converging slightly outward; thence over ears; thence forward to the internal portion of the orbital arch. This tracing is unusual, yet adjustment at this place is specific and arch of effect involved. Illustration No. 717.Mr. F. Anterior view. Containing the fibres shown in Illustration No. 616. Illustration No. 718.Mrs. I. Posterior view. Superior fibre passing outward from between the third and fourth cervical, on both sides leading anteriorly under ears; thence forward over cheek to lateral angle of each eye, passing inwardly. 13th neuromere, on left and right sides, pass obliquely downward and laterally; thence forward over axillae, taking an oblique and downward direction over chest, passing under clavicle; thence upward passing through superficial neck muscle and enter same place with the fourth neuro-meres of both sides. The chiropractor would refer to this as a combination cross tracing with combination cause having a combination effect in the same place. The affection area were the eyes. The effect produced by the fourth neuro-mere was one-half of the inco-ordination. The other one-half was produced by pressure on the 13th neuro-meres. It is necessary to involve a combination adjustment to permit the combination effect to return to co-ordination. 17th ossemere is also subluxated, producing pressure upon a 17th neuro-mere which follows upward and parallel to the spine, passing superficially through the posterior neck, behind and over the ears. This leads directly to and over ears to center third of the superior orbital arch. This shows how three subluxations of different locations will impinge three different nerves going to a common location. Illustration No. 719.Mrs. I. Anterior view. Study description of Illustration No. 718. Illustration No. 720.Mr. R. Posterior view. Subluxation between third and fourth cervical. Fibres go thence laterally and forward to a common junction point, to the ear, where the left fibres divide into three sections, and the right into two. The lower division of the right fibre enters the inferior center of one-third of the eve; the middle fibre thence upward at the lateral section of the eye; the superior fibre passing up and over the superior arch, entering the eye at the center one-third. The left fibre, inferior branch, passes into the inferior one-third of the eye. The superior branch to the outer angle of the eye. Illustration No. 721.Mr. R. Anterior view. 787
STUDY 31 Lesson 1 Illustration No. 722.Dr. A. Posterior view. Fibre on left exists from between third and fourth cervical vertebra, passes the posterior of left ear. Affection was a boil. Subluxation of seventh cervical vertebra also first dorsal shows pressure on eighth neuro-mere on right, and ninth on left. They have a common entering point in the bronchii anterior. This individual suffered with bronchial and diaphragmatic asthma. Inferior tracing shows subluxation from between 13th and 14th ossemeres producing pressure on 14th neuro-mere, leading obliquely downward and laterally on right. Fibres on anterior pass into the diaphragm. This case, superficially, would have been diagnosed but also a contractured left diaphragm. Illustration No. 723.Dr. A. Anterior view. For reading of this photo, study description given under Illustration No. 722. Illustration No. 724.Mrs. K. Anterior view. Illustration No. 725.Mrs. K. Anterior view. Closer view of tracing. Illustration No. 726.Posterior view. Mrs. K. The lower extremities. Illustration No. 727.Close view showing the emergence of two fibres on left and right each assuming a different path. Two superior fibres running laterally and forward. The inferior fibres passing obliquely, downwards, outwards and forwards. The full length in direction of these fibres is shown on Illustration No. 726. Illustration No. 724 shows the anterior direction of two inferior fibers. Notice one over the left thigh passing obliquely inwards to the inner angle of the knee of right fibre, entering upon the inner leg section of the thigh. Illustration No. 728.Mr. T. Posterior view. Tracing shows emergence of fibres between atlas and axis. Direction of each fibre leads anteriorly over ears as shown and marked figure. Also emergence of fibres on left and right between third and fourth cervical vertebra passing forward in front of both ears. Also subluxation of fourth dorsal producing pressure upon 11th neuro-mere which passes under the right scapula, and is thence shown passing under the right axilla. The 14th neuromere shows two fibres passing laterally and forward. 18th neuro-mere ends in three distinct branches going directly to left kidney which was involved. The 21st neuro-mere passes laterally and forward. The next nerve tracing shows one of the particular tracings occasionally met with. The fifth lumbar is subluxated. Pressure is noticed on left between fifth lumbar and sacrum and on right between fourth and fifth lumbar. This tracing is shown in its entirety. The second neuro-mere traces to forehead and area. The individual suffered with headaches. Fourth neuro-mere ends in cheek bone on each side. 11th neuro-mere ends in region over liver. 14th neuro-mere to region to linea alba where photograph shows cicatrix of former operation. 21st tracing leads to lower 788
STUDY 31 Lesson 1 abdominal region. We have not gone into all the details of symptoms and diagnoses with these cases. Symptoms are objective and subjective and are hypothetical in the vast majority of cases. In the objective symptomatology is unnecessary. If subjective, then the percentage of diagnoses is problematical. Illustration No. 729.Mr. C. Anterior view. 13th neuro-mere on left leads to vertebral border of scapula, passes under scapula, thence forward to region over stomach. Illustration No. 730.Mr. C. Anterior view. Notice direction of fibres over region of stomach. 730 A. Mates with 729 and 730. Illustration No. 731.Mrs. L. Two tracings were possible of this case. The more important being the first lumbar subluxation. First lumbar producing pressure upon superior and inferior fibres on both sides. The distribution was in the kidneys. Illustration No. 732.Mr. S. Posterior view. Important tracing is 22nd neuro-mere on left and right sides. Illustration No. 733.Mr. S. Anterior view. 22nd neuromere leading anteriorly to bladder. Illustration No. 734.Mr. J. shows 14th neuro-mere under pressure on left side running to area of stomach as shown by Illustration No. 735. This is a common tracing for all stomach disorders. In going through this entire set of views, the degree of the affection is determined entirely by the degree of subluxation which determines the degree of pressure upon nerves which, in turn, determine the amount of current that is being transmitted. The name you might give a disease depends entirely upon the degree of affection which must be proven by the degree of cause. Thence all nerve tracings; but to connect cause with effect or effect with cause, it is only sufficient to know the location of the affection to nerve trace and exactly and specifically locate the cause. 789
